THE BEST tacos in Bakersfield. Don't let anyone tell you otherwise. Every meat, every menu item,…read moreeven the agua frescas, all top tier. They load you up with meat that are all cleverly seasoned and prepared. Asada has smokey taste to it that I think some places lack. Pastor has the perfect blend of sweet and spicy . Buche is savory and doesn't feel like you're even eating offal. Everything is loaded up! The loaded potato has about a 1/2" lb of meat or more. The quesadillas are plump! Meat almost falls out. Sauces and other accompaniments are self serve and you can get as much as you want. Their chipotle salsa is spicy but damn is it good. They even have spicy onions that I never see. While you wait for your meal and watch the taquero at work, they have beans, tostadas, nopal, grilled onions and jalapenos all just sitting there FOR FREE. They also have some tiny potatoes soaking in the meat juices if you're lucky enough that they haven't run out (also for free!). The experience is just so customer forward and this is a gem that I hope expands even more. They have deals every week from buy one get one tortas, $1 tacos at a certain day at each location. It's often they have a line so consider yourself blessed if there isn't.

Really frustrating experience. I waited about 20 minutes just to place my order. When I finally…read moreordered, the employee handed me number 26 even though the customer before me had number 30. I sat there waiting forever for my number to be called, but it never was. Eventually, she asked me about order 31 and repeated the tacos that were in it. I told her those weren't mine because that's not what I thought I ordered, so she offered to remake the food. I then waited another 20 minutes for the remake. When she finally handed me the order, my drink was missing even though I paid for one. She went back to check the ticket and realized she had grabbed the wrong order entirely. At that point, somehow the original order 31 that had been sitting on the counter the whole time magically turned out to actually be my order after all. So my food had apparently been sitting there getting cold while I waited another 20 minutes for a remake that shouldn't have even happened. The entire situation was disorganized, confusing, and handled very poorly.

Stumbled across multiple food trucks across a church in a parking lot. There was a burger truck,…read moretortilla truck, desert truck, and a taco truck. We approached the taco truck. They had the usual of any taco truck with tortas, quesadillas, vampiro, frequas, tacos, etc. We bought four tacos and a horchata which came out to 19 bucks. A little up there in pricing. They had a table on the side with self served salsa, chilis, radish's, frijoles, grilled veggies, and limes. The tacos come super full with meat, onions, cilantro, guacamole. And their horchata was delicious . Super good spot. And vendors also pass by table to table selling their own foods. One was selling a container full of desert and a woman was selling pans and I bought myself a full container conchas for cheap! Made my night.

The place is pretty easy to find on the corner of 18th & R. There isn't a lot of seating for more than parties of 4. We were a party of 6 and we all smooshed into a horseshoe booth inside. There are only 2 of these booths available and they indicated they are not able to place additional seating at the booths. I imagine you might be able to put tables together outside for a larger party. We were greeted warmly, and while I felt overwhelmed by the amazing choices, the gal taking our order put me at ease by walking me through the menu board. We got amazing carnitas quesadillas and tacos and another dish that came on top of a mound of delicious fries. It's the kind of place where you order, then sit down and they bring you the food. We were well taken care of. Our drinks were refilled and they brought us 'to go' boxes. Their portions are generous and just tasty. And the iced tea was perfect! We ordered a full order of chips and salsa. That is extra. It was $6 for a full order ($5 for half) and these chips were well worth the cost. We will be back!

The horchata was refreshing and smooth, with the right balance of cinnamon sweetness to cool down the spices.

I apologize for spelling errors on food names. It was loud and I was delusional, I accidentally ordered double of what I actually wanted. Happy accident really. But the truck is loud and I sadly do not speak any Spanish, so the confusion made sense. Tacos are pretty good. I got their birria, cabeza, carnitas and something pork and stewed, the name escapes me. Of course the birria was the best. The cabeza was not seasoned enough but otherwise everything was cooked well. Their salsa is so good, you can tell they smoked the chilies. It's also a builder spice. My friend only had a little and could handle it. For me, it got too spicy near the end. Wasn't going to stop me though. The horchata and Jamaica were very good as well! We enjoyed those quite a bit! Overall, a pretty solid place! I plan to come back for their garbanado!

It seems like every corner in town has a Mexican establishment serving birria these days either as…read morea brick-and-mortar, food truck, or taco stand. And I've eaten at nearly all of them. But on a recommendation from colleagues, I was told to make the trip to the central part of town and check out Birria Bros. I'm a convert: It's the best overall place I've had in town. Their menus is simple and laconic without a lot of options: You pick from taco, burrito, quesadilla, and flautas and then you pick the meat: birria, al pastor, or carne. No craziness or Flamin' Hot anything. This is my kind of establishment already. The service is no-frills: It's an iPad with a cashier, and you get one of those pager things that buzz/sound when your food is ready. And then your food gets prepared in the truck and served. This is all anyone needs in life. I enjoy their quesotacos. They're a bargain and a great size at that. But my favorite are the flautas: They're cruchy, creamy, and cheesy. The combos are good too because the rice and beans are tasty. Their orange-colored salsa is smoky but absolutely spicy - definitely use with caution but entirely worth the burn. I think the best thing about BB is the value, as you get a great product for what you pay. I wish they'd open a location on the Southwest.

Uh" why would you bring me here to eat then!!!!! Yup, threw away my food right there. Yes, the food may look presentable but it's a hard NO for me.

Found out about this taco truck from someone and decided to make my way to Union. I checked out the…read moreinstagram page and the food looked bomb! I was excited to check this place out. We had a hard time finding it at first, but it's located in the parking lot of South Union Mini Mart. There's a lot of different taco trucks on Union, so make sure you don't pass this one up. Parking isn't really an issue, so don't worry about that. Staff is really nice. The first time we visited the young lady that took our order was very friendly and interactive. She had a nice warm personality so you feel welcomed when you visit. The owner, I didn't catch his name but he's literally cooking the food in the back. He's super friendly and also made us feel welcomed. Even though they are wayyyy out there on Union, they are the reason why people want to come back. Yes, food can be good at places, but if you have a good heart and personality then people can tell you're genuine. The first time we visited we were overwhelmed because we wanted to try EVERYTHING, I don't know what's my favorite item yet, but I'll let you guys know when I find out. Don't sleep on Taqueria El Jalisciense! I'm not a big fan of chicken tacos and I even loved those and I would get it again. Everything is so flavorful and you can tell he really thought about his menu. What I love is that he uses quality meats. Don't believe me? Definitely check out his instagram @jalisciense_torres don't blame me if you get hungry checking out his page haha. I would definitely recommend this place to everyone. If you're around the area and don't mind driving out to Union then this is the place. Give them a chance. P.S. they only take cash or Zelle so be prepared and they open in the evenings at 4pm-10pm. You better go before people start hearing about this place and the lines get too long. :-)

What great fortune!!! The combination was delicious. Two awesome potato tacos with a half of a Carnitas torta kept me full all day.

I had the combination and the horchata again and my lady switched it up with a carne asada taco, a carnitas taco and more unsweetened jamaica. Everything was delicious as before. If you are traveling through Bakersfield and looking for a quick and delicious meal, you can't go wrong at Loncheria Otro Rollo. Highly recommend it to anyone who wants great Mexican street food.
